    why? and will they start playing more games in other countries ? I find it stupid, because they have to travel to US for a match and come back. It’s different from having to take the buss or plane for couple hours, than taking the plane for many hours.

      From a business perspective it makes sense in the same way many European teams have shifted their pre-season abroad.

      It increases global interest in the league leading to increased revenue, and they get to destroy the planet just that little bit more.

      In my opinion, the decay of football to the pure Americab sports franchise system has been rapid in the last years… maybe that’s just my perspective though.

        I knew about pre-season and I’m ok with this, but doing season games in another countries is stupid.
